This is very odd to me, and I will take a minute from trolling PSU, and ask a legit question: How did PSU botch the development of Mark Hall?
Coming in, Hall was a multi-time age level world champ. His credentials were similar to those of Lee and Gable and he was talked about as in similar tones. He was the future of USA freestyle.
His college career is now several years in the past. He was “only” a one time NCAA champ and hasn’t really made waves on the national or world freestyle stage.
Many of us would kill or die for his career, but he still seems to have fallen short of expectations. Quite a bit short.
By all accounts, he seems to be a great guy and a good young coach. Maybe this is his future path. Maybe he will coach the next generation of US champs?
it just seems that for some reason, that Cael and company couldn’t get him to that next level, and that’s somewhat of a surprise.
